Bring bold vintage energy to your stitching with the Retro Sunburst Cat Cross Stitch Pattern. This striking modern design features a stylized cat framed by radiant geometric sunburst rays in warm oranges, golds, and teal blues. Inspired by retro 1970s poster art and mid-century modern design, this piece is all about strong shapes, confident color, and playful personality.
The symmetrical composition and clean graphic lines translate beautifully into full-coverage cross stitch, creating a crisp, contemporary finish with unmistakable retro flair. It’s the perfect statement piece for modern homes, funky craft rooms, or anyone who loves cats with a bold artistic twist. This is a joyful, high-impact project that celebrates color, symmetry, and feline charm in true retro style.
